I have a dozen or so covered hoppers of several shapes and lengths. I know these are used for carrying grain, cement, and plastic pellets, among other things. Are the individual cars assigned to a specific industry, or do they intermix? <br /> <br />If they intermix, how and where are they cleaned? I am planning to add some industry to my rr, and need at least two places covered hoppers would typically service. <br /> <br />Any good sources for info? <br /> <br />thanks <br /> <br />nodima
